How to Watch: LSU vs. Florida in the College World Series Finals

The LSU Tigers are set to take on the Florida Gators in the College World Series Finals in a star-studded matchup between two SEC powerhouses.

The Gators cruised through their side of the bracket untouched, clinching a spot in the championship series, but as for the Tigers, it was a different story.

After three straight elimination game victories, LSU punched their ticket to the CWS Finals due to their tremendous pitching efforts.

Now, against another offensive juggernaut in the Gators, how will their pitching rotation perform?

LSU’s bullpen has done a 180 ever since postseason play arrived. Over the last 16 games, it has logged a 3.18 ERA in 62 1/3 innings. That includes a 1.20 ERA in Omaha (2 ER in 15 innings). These numbers exclude Thursday’s showing against Wake Forest, which would catapult them even greater.

It’s been a new star virtually every night. Left-hander Nate Ackenhausen stepped on the bump on Tuesday to save the Tigers season against Tennessee. After throwing an absolute gem, LSU kept their season afloat and entered another win-or-go-home matchup against Wake Forest. The hero? Freshman Griffin Herring.

This team has bodies who can, and have, stepped up thus far. After throwing Paul Skenes against Wake Forest on Thursday, his season is virtually over, which puts all the more “pressure” on this pitching rotation ahead of the National Championship.

The Tigers will see Ty Floyd on the mound, but aside from his status, it’ll be interesting to monitor who Jay Johnson rolls with over the next few days. In order to shine against the Gators, the bullpen must continue their hot streak in Omaha.
